454 Riverside Drive, Manhattan, NY 10027

454 Riverside Drive is a 13-story, 36-unit residential building constructed in 1911, currently owned by Diego Rivera. The building has had persistent issues with compliance and maintenance requirements, particularly regarding facade inspections and bedbug reporting. Active violations remain on file from 2018 and 2021 related to the failure to submit required Cycle 8B facade examination reports, with penalties totaling $4,375.

The Department of Buildings has two outstanding violations from 2019 regarding benchmarking report submissions. More recently, in April 2024, there were complaints about the outside building's porch/balcony, though these were investigated and closed without any violations being issued. The building has demonstrated a strong record of rodent control, passing multiple inspections between 2017 and 2025, with only one failure noted in July 2022.

Bedbug management has been actively maintained, with no reported infestations in the past four years based on the most recent filings from 2024. The property has undergone several work projects as evidenced by multiple permit issuances between 2019 and 2020, covering various exterior and plumbing work. The building's violation history shows a pattern of certain recurring issues, particularly regarding required reporting and inspection compliance, though many historical violations have been resolved or dismissed. Regular inspections and maintenance of major systems appear to be generally satisfactory, with no major safety concerns currently outstanding.
